If I'm not mistaken, that's a few km's south of Emerald?

Smart arse!! You still cut about not having a turbo?! :wink: haha!! :lol: Cripple - f#@$# yeah - I was sore on Tuesday morning! But gees, it was worth it.

BTW - great pics. I like the one of mine in front of the tree at Cardinia (but I'm bias!)

And Al, I wouldn't worry about the blue Hilux mate - it was the BLACK one!!! haha! :shock: Seriously, we're were fine with the speed - I was more worried about the copper that ranged up onto the back of me then turned off as we left that town.

Hey,

There's no substitute for cubic inches! And a V-Tune! And Quad tips!, And Apexi Panel Filter! And Resonatorectomy! And...no seriously, I was surprised to see the 2.5 NA on my rear bumper almost all the way, except for one hill climb out of one bend. Seriously good package the 2.5 NA with the manual.

Now, if I had my vehicle of choice on that road, it would be a 3.0R spec B with the 6MT gearbox and my mods! I was punishing my 5AT with most of the initial part in 2nd and 3rd. But the auto transmission cooler really helps on these drives. Never seen an over-temp light yet on the 5AT.

Guys, Loverly pics!

Hey, anyone got a video camera and some shooting skills to go with it? What say we get a video shoot going for our next cruise! I reckon if we pick the right corners and stage the group coming through we could produce a fantastic skit for Top Gear. And with a sound track, we would hear all the different exhaust notes! Arthurs Seat climb and descent would provide a great little spot with plenty of spots to place a camera and tripod!

Am I getting a little too excited?

Guys, thanks for an enjoyable day, and a great memory.

Kind Regards,

Mark.
